Zhang Juan is 45 years old and has spent 20 years with her husband, Liu Gang. Liu Gang was a respected soldier who had served in the army for a long time and had the dignity of a regimental level. In the past, Zhang Juan has always had a high respect for Liu Gang's profession, believing that such a background will bring stability and happiness to the family.
However, it backfired. When Liu Gang ended his military career and returned to civilian life, everything began to develop in an unpredictable direction. Zhang Juan originally thought that the couple would be able to meet more often and plan for the future together, but Liu Gang's personality has changed dramatically.
At first, Zhang Juan thought that this was only a temporary difficulty for Liu Gang to adapt to his new life, but as time went by, the situation became more and more serious. Liu Gang does not seem satisfied with the job he has found, and whenever the topic is brought up, he always seems impatient, as if all the troubles are someone else's fault. Although Zhang Juan tried to calm down and make suggestions, Liu Gang often ignored and even became angry with her.
Under the dual pressure of work and family life, Zhang Juan felt lonely and helpless like never before. She thought that marriage was a harbor for husband and wife to support together, but the reality was far from that. Liu Gang seems to be accustomed to venting all his dissatisfaction and pressure on Zhang Juan, and has never considered sharing her burden.
Once, when Zhang Juan came home from work, the unhappiness at work made her feel very bad, and she wanted to confide in Liu Gang, but was indifferently rejected. Liu Gang's reaction made Zhang Juan sad, and she suddenly realized that the person in front of her was no longer the warm and tolerant partner she knew at the beginning.
As time goes on, conflicts in the family intensify. Liu Gang always loses his temper because of some trivial things, and the small frictions in life gradually escalate to the norm. After every quarrel, Zhang Juan would cry silently, and the patience and dissatisfaction in her heart gradually accumulated to the extreme.
In search of change, Zhang Juan began to think about more drastic decisions. She realized that if she continued to endure such a life, she would be under great stress mentally and physically. Faced with such a life that hurts psychologically and emotionally every day, Zhang Juan began to think about whether she should end this marriage and find a new path.
On an ordinary overtime day, Zhang Juan worked until more than 7 p.m. as usual. When she opened the door tiredly, she saw Liu Gang sitting leisurely on the sofa, neither preparing dinner nor showing any concern for her hard work. When she asked Liu Gang to help with some household chores, Liu Gang reacted with anger and accusations, believing that Zhang Juan's request was an insult to his identity. This quarrel once again confirmed that the estrangement between the two could no longer be resolved through a simple conversation.
With each dispute, Zhang Juan's heart became colder and colder, and she realized more and more clearly that if she did not make changes, she would not be able to bear such a life. Under this pressure, Zhang Juan began to seriously consider divorce, hoping to regain her life and dignity in this way.
In this marriage, Zhang Juan tried to communicate with Liu Gang many times, hoping to find a solution to the problem and get the relationship between the two back on track. But every attempt ended in failure, and Liu Gang seems to have completely lost his understanding and empathy, and is more likely to impose his emotions and dissatisfaction on Zhang Juan.
Such an environment made Zhang Juan feel extremely depressed and helpless, and she began to doubt her own value and the meaning of existence. In the dead of night, Zhang Juan would reflect on whether her own forbearance and concession had led to the deterioration of the status quo. She realized that only through radical change could she get out of the current situation.
Eventually, after much deliberation, Zhang Juan decided to take action. She began to gather all the information and materials needed for the divorce, to understand the legal process and the necessary preparations. In the process, Zhang Juan felt unprecedented clarity and determination, and although her heart was full of reluctance and pain, she knew that this was the way to go.
The conversation between Zhang Juan and Liu Gang gradually changed from an argument to a calm discussion. She made her decision clear to Liu Gang, and although Liu Gang was initially difficult to accept, after many exchanges, he began to realize that his actions had indeed caused great harm to Zhang Juan. He began to reflect on his actions, but it was too late.
The divorce process is not complicated, but every step is fraught with emotional struggles. When all the formalities were finally completed, Zhang Juan felt an indescribable relief and sadness. She loses a loved one she once loved, but at the same time gets a chance to start over.
Life has changed a lot since the divorce. Zhang Juan began to rearrange her life and work, and she became more active in social activities and tried new interests and hobbies. She also began to pay more attention to her health and mental state, and regained her long-lost self and happiness.
Although this experience was painful, it also made Zhang Juan understand the importance of self-worth and independence. She learned how to find her way out of adversity and how to grow in the midst of pain. Although the future is full of uncertainties, Zhang Juan is even more convinced that with determination and courage, everyone can take control of their own destiny and move towards a brighter and hopeful future.
This story is both a reminder and a revelation for many people in difficult situations. It teaches us that no matter how difficult it is, there is a solution. The most important thing is to have the courage to make changes and find your true happiness and worth.
